A number of states licenses aren’t in compliance with federal regulations. Is it your state?
Sure you could look it up, like a pussy, but isn’t the real adventure in going to the airport and discovering for yourself?

Just wait until January 22nd, and a couple million folks get told “LOL, you need a passport to fly domestically now.”

I’m literally just asking them to print a nonbinding date in the passport, how would that matter to the international people

It’s on the Delta website. If you’re traveling international, you’re kind of an idiot if you don’t do a little bit of homework. (My bold on the, “Your passport....”)

And if you leave a month before the first date to a nation that grants you a one year visa upon entry?

Because the country that you are visiting wants to be sure that you will be able to leave by the time you have to leave. They don’t want you “stuck” there because your passport is expired.

Also quite clearly stated here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/International-Travel-Country-Information-Pages/Netherlands.html

Even flying private, you still have to go through passport control at your destination. In the worst case, you get to make the whole flight before being turned away and sent back.

I think the assumption is that “real public figures” just have people who are on the ball about this stuff for them. Beyonce isn’t booking her own flights, flying internationally is a routine part of her life, and if her assistant who helps with that sort of thing is any good (and if s/he isn’t any good, they won’t be…

They do warn you though. Or at leas they warned me on my last flight. It’s also somewhat common knowledge. Funny that a writer for a website that routinely mocks the supposed ignorance of others found himself in this situation.

It is literally on the first paragraph of the International Travel info page. Also mentioned when booking.

On Christmas night I went to the airport with my wife

I disagree, I thought it made The Force Awakens practically meaningless since most of the (potentially) impactful story elements and characters they set up fell absolutely flat in TLJ.

Maybe Episode 9 will be different but so far I’m disappointed in all of the new movies.

Didn’t Rian Johnson pretty much confirm on Twitter that the films weren’t planned in advance?

Snoke’s cutting remark about the helmet in The Last Jedi laid bare something we already knew: that Ben Kenobi is basically just a punk.

I don’t have any problem with the choice, in fact I support it because frankly I’m tired of the “Chosen One” trope.

I didn’t care for the reveal. Rey being a nobody is fine, but I don’t see the point in all the hints in The Force Awakens and then the actors and directors coyly talking around it between films. It’s like someone giving you a box and encouraging you to speculate what’s in it, and then yelling “surprise!” when you open…

Stuff I liked:

OooOooh look at me. I’m soooo hip I can hate on something just because I don’t connect with the fans.

“The Star Wars prequels are not exceptionally good movies, but they aren’t particularly awful, either.”
